🌍 Introduction – One World, Many Cookies
Every culture celebrates the festive season with something sweet. From Denmark’s buttery shortbread to Germany’s spiced gingerbread and Japan’s delicate matcha cookies, holiday baking is more than tradition—it’s how families share joy, love, and memories.
At Lowrey Foods, we’re inspired by these stories. Our handcrafted New Zealand butter cookies bring together flavours and craftsmanship from around the world—made with 42% cultured butter and baked to a golden, melt-in-your-mouth perfection.
🎅 1. Denmark – The Birthplace of Butter Cookies
When you think of Christmas cookies worldwide, Danish butter cookies instantly come to mind. Traditionally packed in blue tins, these cookies are famous for their crumbly texture and pure butter aroma.
Lowrey has taken that Danish inspiration and refined it with New Zealand’s cultured butter, creating a version that’s creamier, richer, and handmade in small batches. Each tin carries that same warmth—but with a Kiwi twist.
🍫 2. Germany – The Land of Spices and Stollen
Germany’s Christmas tables are lined with Lebkuchen, Zimtsterne, and cinnamon-scented cookies that fill homes with comfort. The same balance of sweet and spice lives in Lowrey’s chocolate and coffee shortbread cookies—deep, aromatic flavours with a buttery base.
They’re perfect alongside mulled wine or a hot chocolate on a cold December night. Add them to your own festival desserts board for a luxurious international touch.
🍵 3. Japan – Matcha Magic and Minimalist Desserts
In Japan, winter desserts are often infused with matcha, a finely ground green tea powder loved for its calming aroma and delicate bitterness.
That’s the inspiration behind Lowrey Matcha Butter Cookies, combining authentic Japanese matcha with creamy New Zealand butter. The result is an elegant, East-meets-West cookie—smooth, balanced, and beautiful enough for gifting or teatime indulgence.
🍓 4. France – Sablé Cookies and the Art of Simplicity
France’s sablé cookies are the country’s answer to shortbread—delicate, buttery, and crumbly with that signature sandy texture. They’re often layered with fruit jams or dusted with sugar during Christmas.
Lowrey’s Raspberry Butter Cookies pay homage to that French artistry, made with freeze-dried raspberries sourced locally in New Zealand. They’re vibrant, tangy, and perfectly balanced by the rich buttery base—ideal for elegant holiday baking and gifting.
🎁 5. The United States – Variety and Gifting Culture
From sugar cookies to gingerbread houses, Americans celebrate variety and creativity in their Christmas cookies. But among all the frosting and colours, buttery simplicity still wins hearts.
That’s where Lowrey Butter Cookies fit perfectly—beautifully packaged tins, consistent quality, and a handmade texture that feels special. They’re ideal for corporate gifts, family hampers, or cookie exchanges.
🕯️ 6. New Zealand – Local Warmth, Global Taste
In New Zealand, holiday baking blends global inspiration with local flavour. Homes fill with buttery cookies, pavlovas, and fruit mince pies—all celebrating quality local ingredients.
Lowrey continues this Kiwi tradition with an international spirit. Every batch is made with New Zealand cultured butter, known worldwide for its high butterfat and natural richness, giving Lowrey cookies their signature melt-in-your-mouth quality.
